Annual Carnival Raises Money for Non-Profit Preschool

Northminster Preschool, celebrating 43 years in the Clairemont community, will host its annual Wild West Carnival for preschool aged children on this Saturday, November 9, 2013 from 10am to 2pm. The Carnival features game booths, pony rides, face painting, jump houses, bake and craft sales, silent auction and raffle drawings and food for purchase.

Inclusive wristbands and ticket books may be purchased in advance; individual tickets will also be available at the door. Silent auction and raffle prizes have been generously donated by local businesses, parents and faculty and include many gift certificates from restaurants, spas, arts organizations/shows, sport activities, museums and more. The silent auction themed gift baskets are a great place to shop for holiday gifts.

The Carnival is Northminster Preschool’s main fundraiser; all monies collected go to child enrichment programs, playground toys and improvements, as well as classroom improvements and manipulatives.

Northminster Preschool’s Carnival is a community event. School parents, staff and church families all work together to assure a fun, safe event for all. The 2012-2013 school years’ Carnival netted over $8,800; hopes are to exceed that amount this year.

Northminster Preschool provides a community Christian Preschool program with an enriched curriculum for children ages two through five years old. The school is located at 4324 Clairemont Mesa Boulevard, San Diego, California, 92117, Phone (858) 270-3760 or email: preschool@northminstersandiego.com
